Experience Inspiration,Spark Innovation

Inspiration lives here.

Over the past forty years, Oracle’s mission has been to transform our world for the better through innovative technologies. Now, we’re capturing inspirational stories about employees, customers and partners doing amazing things to help us realize that mission.

Experience Inspiration, presented by Oracle, gives us a platform to share these stories with you and the world at large. Here you will find extraordinary speakers who have made a profound impact on society—from shaping lives to reinventing industries. And we are constantly on the hunt for new sources of inspiration, so if you know of someone within Oracle’s ecosystem doing amazing things, let us know.

For now, take a few minutes to listen to what our speakers have to say. Some have overcome extreme adversity to transform their lives and careers; others have taken the seed of an idea and nurtured it into a force for good. All deserve to be recognized for the work they do to make our world a better place.

We hope this Experience Inspiration series helps inspire you to take your personal and professional growth to new levels. For your benefit, and for the benefit of us all.
